To expand on Javier's note, at a former client of mine we used email
notifications extensively using R:Mail. The email notification was on
the [Save] button, and in some cases was conditional on the data in the
saved form. We used a table with the email addresses and a group list to
send emails to several users using a cursor to walk the list, sending
the emails one by one.

You can always have the system/form send him/her and e-mail automatically
and then he will get a real Outlook notification or have a quick report
printed on his/her printer. I use this approach when we receive a complaint;
the form with the details is printed in the printer of the foreman to whom
the work request was assigned. When the work is completed and the work order
is closed, the system generates an e-mail and sends it to the person that
filed the complaint.

RBase 7.1
I have a Refresh button on my main menu form which redisplays plant summary
information. But... what a few users are asking for is an "Outlook" type
notification (on the task bar) when users enter a work request so "the
planner" can act upon it immediately. Any suggestions?
I don't have to send a message to the planner's PC. It's more of a "On
Return to this form EEP".
TIA,
Dennis
